WakeCap
WakeCap is a construction-technology company that puts a small IoT sensor into standard safety helmets to give project owners live, site-wide visibility into workforce, safety, productivity and progress. Founded in 2017 by Dr. Hassan Albalawi and Ishita Sood, the company runs a wireless mesh network that works without GPS, cellular or Wi-Fi and feeds field data into a single owner's dashboard. Its technology has been deployed across roughly $80 billion of active projects - including Aramco, NEOM, Qiddiya and King Salman Park - and has tracked more than 150 million labor hours. WakeCap raised a $28M Series A in 2025 and operates from Riyadh, Dubai and San Francisco.
Outbuild
Outbuild is a construction scheduling and planning platform that combines master scheduling, lookahead planning, weekly work plans, and analytics in one integrated, AI-assisted tool. Built to close the gap between the office and the jobsite, it lets general contractors and field teams build and update schedules, track commitments, and remove roadblocks so projects finish on time. Founded in 2021 and led by CEO Franco Giaquinto, the company is fully remote and has raised an $11M Series A led by Sway Ventures.
Timothy Cocaro
Timothy Cocaro is the founder and CEO of Canibuild, an AI-powered instant site feasibility platform that lets builders and homeowners check in seconds whether a house, granny flat, pool or shed can go on a block of land - collapsing weeks of surveying, drafting and estimating into a single click. A builder by trade with a computer science degree from the University of Sydney, Cocaro spent two decades running RESCON Builders, Australia's largest dedicated granny-flat company, before turning his own construction frustrations into software in 2019. Canibuild raised an AUD 8 million Series A led by EVP in 2022, grew to thousands of daily users across Australia, New Zealand and the United States, and was named #1 in Real Estate at the Google Maps Platform Awards 2025.
